The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing General notability guideline requirement nor the more detailed Notability (fiction) supplementary essay. Few mentions in passing fail WP:SIGCOV. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar. Reception section (which also discusses merchandise) could be integrated with the List of Indiana Jones characters. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 10:54, 27 March 2021 (UTC)

 * Weak keep I agree with the nominator, but it still has a number of reliable references. -Cupper52Discuss! 11:17, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
 * , The issue is that they need to be relevant - see WP:SIGCOV. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 05:47, 28 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. Reasonably notable as a character depicted across several media. BD2412  T 04:19, 28 March 2021 (UTC)
 * , But the (very few) depictions are not in depth. WP:SIGCOV, people... Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 05:48, 28 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Well now you've gone and made me add a source or two. BD2412  T 06:11, 28 March 2021 (UTC)
 * , Thanks for finding although a report on an interview at a local comicon... hmmm... well, it's helpful, I guess, but I am still not convinced we are meeting GNG here. Anyway, is there a reason you did not link to the news piece directly when adding the ref to the article? I had to google to find it...

 * I searched Newspapers.com, rather than the internet. You get a different set of results. BD2412  T 04:00, 29 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. My own WP:BEFORE search on Google.com, Google News and Google Books did not reveal a lack of significant coverage which the nominator claimed the topic lacks. In fact, the developmental/behind the scenes section can be expanded even further. Haleth (talk) 06:02, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Apparently Excavating Indiana Jones: Essays on the Films and Franchise, Randy Laist, ed., (McFarland, April 3, 2020), offers a number of essays discussing the character, but I can only view snippets. BD2412  T 06:10, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
